Nightmare Beauty

She walks in the rain
She walks with rain
She is the rain.

Falling in sheets
Listening
Listening to the beat

Trudging up the wretched stairs
Its glistens
Glistens in her hair

Such a long face
And the makeup
Makeup leaves its trace

Let death lie where it may
Funeral like procession…another Black Monday

Mournful obsession
Unholy, stigmatic possession
Dying in a systematic down
The floor disappears and she drowns
Deeper down the rabbit hole her dream falls
Nightmarish haunting stalks her down the blood soaked halls
Thoughtless voices, helpless screams
In her reality bent world, nothing is as it seems

Unpaid payback
Shattered childhood flash backs
Demented mind games
Mortifying mentality making you insane
Abusive mental powers
Control, eerily massive shadows tower

Fear dwarfs you, you cower

The waters flush in, your body to consume
Liquid black screams bubble out, choking and sealing doom
My plague, my sickness
The infested atmosphere grows in thickness
The loss of life
Destructive, aggregative strife
He is gone, he is gone
My love, my life; so long, so long

I wait in death for you to come
And to place a kiss, this twisted spell undone

Your face, your voice
My only choice

Words, no, I don’t need to say

A dying romance

Love,
Black Monday

Author notes

Here is the original part 4 to the 'Black Monday' series to which I later scrapped and rewrote the series. This side of the series flips the view and tells it from the female perspective telling what is happening in the meanwhile on the 'other side'. It seems that I was trying to pull back the original concept of the very first Black Monday poem here with a more coherent and readable structure of the latter.

    ok I need to go read through the others then, because I loved this! Oddly enough, I felt like you were descibing me.

    These are the lines that stood out the most to me, maybe because I could relate so well. Wonderful write!
